When some unknown comes on FR wanting to dig around in somebody's private life, they deserve to be treated like a dog on a fire hydrant.
Typos happen. I realized the typo after posting but relied, unrealistically I see now, on others' ability to tolerate forum typing -- hardly a paragon of exactitude of keyboard use.
I think it's far more worthwhile to discuss the issues rather than someone's typing skills, or, in my case, lack thereof while drinking coffee, watching a film and trying to type a reply simultaneously.
I'm not laughing at you, I'm pointing out the irony. Don't be so touchy.
Yeah, something's noticably amiss lately with Coulter. She seems far more desperate than I'm accustomed to her appearing as...strange to see her take such a nosedive as lately, in many of her recent comments.
Those about Miers were so beneath anyone as to now make her sound like Tweedle Dee to Michael Moore's Tweedle Dum.
Sorry, but if you don't agree with a point of view, there is no need to get nasty. Some might interpret your flaming as 1) you can't answer their argument or 2) you're a nasty sort...or both.
You really should give it a rest because you are obviously smart and make good points at times, but your vicious name-calling diminishes your arguments.
I give it a rest with you and with more reasonable posters.
Drive-by-shooters don't deserve it.
The Freepers are now officially a threat as the
posts keep coming with the obvious trashing of our
President and any action he takes ..Courts, War,
Budgets,etc...you name it.....They can only see
the next election and then putting Hillary there
in 2008...first is to demoralize the base and the
supporters of POTUS. Jake
At any rate, many of us on this forum have supported Dubya even though we are 1) not happy with his spending and 2) VERY unhappy with his immigration policy. We thought that the SC nomination is what we worked for...and you must understand why we have serious doubts about Miers. As Richard Viguerie said (paraphrasing):"We've waited 40 years for this opportunity...and this is the best we could do?"
This forum has supported Dubya with a lot of energy...this is the first time that there has been a real split on him and I for one think it is deserved--and healthy.
According to the WaPo timeline in your post, Miers became president of Locke Purnell in 1996. I presume she was still president when the firm merged with Liddell and Sapp, and thereupon became co-managing partner of the new Locke Liddell and Sapp. If that is correct, she was president of LP during the preliminary period of negotiations with the firm of Liddell and Sapp. One would expect her to have been involved in the negotiations and to bear some responsibility for allying her firm with that of Liddell and Sapp.
If that is unreasonable, hopefully someone will point it out.
Just WHO do all you "Dump Miers" people think is going to fight FOR your "Rock Hard Conservative Judge" See the 90-09 Senate Terrorist Protection vote in the Defense Appropriation? War's over boys. Your Republican Senate has ALL ready surrendered.
Did she really? This is great news. Now my liberal friends, despite having tried to associate me with every hysterical comment Coulter ever makes, now have more in common with her than I have.
I was wondering if this was the same guy I heard on Ankarlo!
I was listening to his spiel and I kept having this nagging feeling that something wasn't right... for lack of a better phrase, the numbers weren't adding up to me.
Thanks to FR, now I know what I was missing....
The fraud happened before she got there!
See how much we learn and how great FR is??!!!!
I didn't know about the timing of Mier's involvment with the laws firm either, until I read it HERE!!!!
Corsi sure didn't bring it up...and Ankarlo didn't know to question him on it...I don't think...
Hopefully, Darrell will have done his homework soon...and tell his listeners THAT part of the story...because I wouldn't have known..
GREAT POINT...THANKS!!
Everyone else is trashing Bush over the Miers pick so why not pile on to sell a few papers? You'll find WND and NYT next to National Enquirer in the news stands. It looks like Jayson Blair found work after all.
"Comrade Napoleon is always right"
I'm kind of surprised to see you write this question; I thought you opposed Miers.
How embarassing for you that you don't know the "rest of the story" concerning this guy.
